Forecasts

Black Poppy (10/3), Artistic Choice (4/1), Onemorefortheroad (9/2), Master Dancer (11/2), Fruit N Nut (6/1), Gipsy De Choisel (15/2), Head Law (12/1), Glorious Zoff (33/1)

Verdict

In a tight handicap the suggestion is GIPSY DE CHOISEL whose lightly-raced profile suggests he could easily still have more to come for his top connections. Juvenile Artistic Choice made a successful switch to handicaps at Huntingdon recently and is second choice ahead of Head Law, who shaped well on his reappearance and had a possible excuse for a lesser run since.

  1. GIPSY DE CHOISEL (FR)
  2. ARTISTIC CHOICE (IRE)
  3. HEAD LAW (FR)
